Abstract
It is exhibited that failure of carbyne-graphene nanoelements and similar low-dimensional nanostructures at thermo-mechanical loading is stochastic by its nature. Lifetime of such low-dimensional nanostructures is governed by waiting time of the fluctuation-induced contact bonds breaking. It was ascertained that the lifetime distribution function is described by an exponential law, the parameter of which is the value of the probability of contact bond breaking during the period of one atomic vibration. A significant lifetime scatter is a characteristic feature of failure of this type of nanoelements under a constant loading value. This means that when using such nanoelements in practice, it is necessary to focus not on the average lifetime, but on its lower limit with a pre-specified value of failure probability 1% … 5%.
